FoL Awards 2022 - Discussion Thread

[Magnus]

You’re actually obsessed with May.

[May]

Hi I’m here by accident. Mlafia should not be considered mafia. On principle

[May]

It can’t be mafia if the host refuses to acknowledge it ever again. As far as I’m concerned it never happened

[Mistyx]

actually i think that’s a prerequisite

[May]

But the actual answer is that even if you don’t count the aforementioned maybe a mafia game, I did play a single Discord mafia game in November 2021, during which I got N1ed because the vig shot my lover. So I’m not a rookie, of the year or otherwise, on that technicality.

Treat all of my nominations as seconds if they were already nominated, btw.

@katze

ill second this one, but to add onto your nomination, i think her endgame play was extremely cool mechanically and i was personally pretty impressed that she went through with it once i saw the possibility from dvc

from my understanding/recollection, her role was able to neighborize people and in that neighborhood they could agree to doctor somebody or have the host vote them at the start of the next day (i think she only neighborized one person all game with it which i think is also pretty clever)

going into the last night, she intentionally got her neighbor to agree to doctor somebody, and then shot into the doctor intentionally, bringing the game into F4 instead of F3

from what i recall there was consideration on whether or not etha was a wolf in that last day, but like. there’s a missing nightkill and she’s the reason it’s missing, there’s a villager people already suspected enough, she took a F3 that she likely wins and turned it into a F4 that’s really really hard to lose

Also, just wanted to chime into the discussion thread and say: wow, what an impressive endgame play. Idk how much experience Etha has at forum mafia but that’s some galaxy brain type shit.

[Ruby]

Etha has little FM but a fair lot of mafia experence.
Though what we usally play (DW) is on the mech heavy side their beign able to be completly town read was amazing to watch as a host.

But ya the end game was played perfectly from her and i don’t think she really had a bad mech play through out the game either.

[Zorvo]

Yeah mechanically I felt Etha played good overall, I just felt town didn’t bring enough attention towards her like I explained previously where pressure should have been there when they were trying to push the green check but no one pushed on them enough.
They knew how to socially maneuver but I felt like town could have had Etha there if they just put some pressure on them at that moment.

[Zorvo]

Like I was spectating that game and my only wolf read from paying attention was exactly Etha from their push on Kanave and then me seeing someone pop in with a green check on Kanave.

Yet Etha managed to get Kanave to townread them, basically resorting to pocket instead of push them after they got green checked.

Yet no one pressured Etha, or at least not enough.

[Litten]
